Can it crush a soda or beer can, without crushing it or putting a dent in it before hand?

I don't believe so but that's not really what it's designed for. I have vacuumed coffee and trail mix which other sealers seem to have problems with however

NO. The item is not able to hold any pressure within a beer can or a soda can. There is one out there that I have used that works as you want but it breaks easily and to often to even recommend it.

No, a can will not fit in the cylinder. You pour the liquid into it, whether beer or any other liquid you use.

No I don't believe it would. The way it works is it tilts as you crush the can so that it drops the can when you release it. That in itself would make it too difficult to crush that small a can. I also don't think cat food cans are made of the same material.

Yes, this will crush 32 oz cans. I have crushed many 32 oz cans with this crusher. Just make sure to keep the vertical rails lubricated with some WD-40 before each use.

Have not had 1 gallon cans but I would say no. Compactor crushes at your strength. The more strength you apply the more it will crush.

It will crush 16oz cans as well but they don't fit in the hopper so you have to load it strait in. It's fine for an occasional 16oz or odd shaped (skinny) can but if you have predominantly 16oz cans I wouldn't recommend this crusher.

Not easily, if at all. I just tried a dog food can ... it was almost too wide to fit in the opening. I used both hands with as much force as I could without risking pulling the crusher out of the wall and didn't even make a dent in the can. Pop cans, on the other hand, can be crushed with one hand and little effort.

I have not tried to do that, however it will crush Gatorade bottles and they are pretty thick plastic. Also, if you dimple the sides of any aluminum container it will crush much easier.

IME if you have cans too tall you can squeeze the sides and crush it a little with your hands enough so it will fit inside "The Crusher"

No. Just put it in the freezer. When its frozen then put your drink in it and squish it around.

No, it will not crush the tall cans. It will only crush the small cans. But it didn't even hold up a week crushing the small cans.

No, you'll have to partially crush them down to the 12 oz size, by hand, or some other manner. I found this with some large Guinness cans which I had to open anyway, to get the little ball out before recycling. Then you can crush them all the way with the device itself. The new bend in the can will make it want to pop out -- just put a hand in the way as you're crushing it, so it gets done.

It will work on a pushed in dent and not a dent that has been hit real hard ?

I doubt it. I have not attempted but I have attempted to crush RedBull cans which are a little taller than standard cans and it does not fit. if I slightly crunch it by hand to make it an appropriate height it works though. You just have to make sure not to crush it too much or the pressure of the can crusher won't hold it in place to finish crushing it. Sounds complicated, in actuality isn't really, just a slight hassle.

No. In fact, I do not know of a hand-powered crusher that will handle steel cans like soup cans, veggie cans, etc. If you find one let us all know!
